Btw. do you know the technical reason why it's still working with Firefox? Does it have to do with this new anti-adblock-API that was recently introduced in Chrome and Safari?

    Yes, that's my understanding. And because Firefox is not chromium based they can't mess with the underlying code. Plus uBlock Origin works better on Firefox and it gets updates faster.
